Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP):
1.923ℹSource Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP):2017: 1.923SNIP measures contextual citation impact by weighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field.

SCImago Journal Rank (SJR):
1.990ℹSCImago Journal Rank (SJR):2017: 1.990SJR is a prestige metric based on the idea that not all citations are the same. SJR uses a similar algorithm as the Google page rank; it provides a quantitative and a qualitative measure of the journal’s impact.
